About me
Kirsten van Nispen
Nutrition and Lifestyle Coach
Holistic Massage and Bodyworker
Reiki III
Hi, I am Kirsten. I am a Nutrition and Lifestyle Coach and Holistic Massage and Bodyworker. I have always been passionate about nutrition and health. It all started when I studied Organic Agriculture in the Netherlands many years ago. I wanted to grow and eat healthy and sustainable food.
Once I had children and moved to the UK, I worked as a Lactation Consultant for over 10 years. I loved working with new prospective parents and their little ones. My interest in well-being grew after I had a bad shoulder injury and I had a Bodyworker 'sort me out'. I could finally move again, knowing this was an avenue I wanted to explore. So, I trained with the Massage Training Institute as a Holistic Massage Therapist and Bodyworker. I have been running a successful Massage Practice for 15 years. I use different techniques such as hand-free, cupping, hot stones, and deep-tissue to offer a treatment that suits my client's individual needs.
I felt I needed to pursue my other interests to help my clients on a more profound level; that is where nutrition and health came in. So, I trained with the Institute for Health Sciences in Dublin 7 years ago, and I have been a Nutrition and Lifestyle Coach since qualifying. As a Nutrition and Lifestyle Coach, I work with various clients with various goals and needs. This could be anything from weight loss, increased energy levels, and cravings to women's hormones.
Together, we will create a personalized nutrition and lifestyle plan to help you achieve your health and well-being goals.
​
I am also a Level III Reiki practitioner. Reiki is a Japanese stress reduction and relaxation technique that promotes healing. It is administered by “laying on hands” and is based on the idea that an unseen “life force energy” flows through us and is what causes us to be alive. If one’s “life force energy” is low, we are more likely to get sick or feel stressed; if it is high, we are more capable of being happy and healthy. Over the years my love for Reiki has grown and these days I help many clients through Reiki on a physical, emotional, and spiritual level.

I'm based in Bristol UK on Gloucester Road, come and see me!! Zoom sessions for nutrition available too!

Women's Health
As we all know women go through several phases in their lives where their hormone levels change dramatically. These changes can be quite uncomfortable at times and our diet and overall health can make a enormous difference. Let's look at that and see if we can make the changes in our bodies easier and so they interfere less with our daily lives.
Weight Loss
Most of us will want to lose a few, for health reasons, to fit in those old trousers and look good on the beach. Let's go for it!!
Blood Sugar Balancing
Research has shown that having a stable blood sugar balance plays a major part in our health. We will look at how to do this and what kinds of foods will benefit our blood sugars.
